Yvonne has been playing guitar and writing songs since the tender age of 8 -- true, she makes it look easy but many years have gone into perfecting her craft! Over the past 10 years, she has released four albums of original material: her first album, Knowing This Path (1996) seemed to predict where she would be going in her life, both as a woman and as a musician; it plots a very personal journey. Tomorrow's Day (1999) began as a demo project of a few songs, but demand for another CD of her original music persuaded Yvonne to release it as an acoustic album. So, it became her "unplugged" project -- just guitars and her searing voice. Her next album, My Peace (2002), truly captures for the first time Yvonne's multi-dimensional talent and sound that defy a compartmentalized genre. It is a project representative of her maturity as an artist and as a person-- combining upbeat, bluesy tracks with warm, full ballads and something in between.
Her current album, "Mudpies", has finally been released. A "mudpie" is a collection of mud, water, bugs, grass, rocks and anything else you can imagine as a child. This album, "Mudpies", is a colorful collection of fun times, sad times, love and life. Produced, once again, by Matt Bissonette, "Mudpies" has landed.
After hearing Yvonne's music or watching her perform, most come away with the feeling that they have really seen a glimpse of Yvonne's soul. In her own genuine and real way, she writes her heart into her songs.
